Crema 1.2.0

The update that teaches Crema to update itself.

Highlights

  • Automatic updates via Sparkle. From this release on, Crema checks for new
    versions (with your consent — it asks first) and installs them in place;
    Check for Updates… lives in the menu bar. Coming from 1.1.0? This one
    last download is manual.
  • A rebuilt HUD level indicator. A hand-drawn capsule with a curved fill
    tip and a grab knob that appears under the pointer — hovering holds the HUD
    open, so the knob is there exactly when you can use it. The classic style
    keeps its 16-segment bezel.
  • A smoother scrubber. The drag owns the gesture: the bar follows your
    finger, a single seek fires on release, and the shown position holds
    honestly against late echoes from the player.
  • Refined hover. The interactive regions now match exactly what is
    rendered, on every style — enter and exit feel right at the edges.
  • An app icon. The crema pill over dark coffee, rendered for every size
    macOS asks for, with a matching monochrome template icon in the menu bar.
  • An About tab in Settings, with the version, links, and credits.

Under the hood: per-channel recovery hardening for the HUD-replacement mode,
time-bounded subprocess handling for the now-playing bridge, and a larger,
stricter test suite.

Requirements: macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later · Apple Silicon or Intel.

Install: download Crema.dmg below, open it, and drag Crema into
Applications. Crema isn't notarized by Apple, so the first launch needs one
extra step — see First launch in the README:
